Mystery chick - guesses on breed just for fun??😊

[MamaFox78]

Hi! This little cutie, Lady Cluck, was hatched from a light brown egg in a batch of mystery hatching eggs I got from a local farm. She's about 8 weeks old now.

At first I thought she was a light Brahma due to her floofy feet, but as she's gotten older now I know she isn't... her feathers don't have that Brahma pattern, she's mostly white with one black tail feather and a few black speckles. Plus she's got cheek floof like my Easter Eggers and Amerucauna chicks, and a little top knot of fluff- she's also smaller than Trixie, my blue-gold Brahma who hatched at the same time. Cochin was my next guess, but her tail is too long, so I'm at a loss.

At this point I'm thinking she's a barnyard mix... but any guesses as to what breed(s)?? TIA!

Just a mutt. Probably has EE in her.

I suspect so... probably some Brahma in there too.

She developed a twisted foot at a few days old, so I'm betting she doesn't have the best breeding... might have to harvest her if it causes pain when she matures, but for now she's adapted fine and doing normal chickie things so I'm waiting to see.

Kinda looks like a sultan, crests take a bit to come in but they're pretty uncommon I think

My guess is araucana and some Belgian d'uccle
